Well, in this time of economic problems, I have decided to be more diligent with using coupons. Through a friends recommendation, I started reading the
moneysavingmom.com blog. On this site, people post all of the money saving deals they have found for the week. It basically tells you which store to use your coupons at in order to save them most money. So, after research and organizing my coupons I headed to the
CVS drugstore. I bought 2 pert plus shampoos, 2
deodorants, 2 tubes of toothpaste and a bag of chips. After using coupons and my
CVS card my total was $4.96. I also
received $3.50 in extra bucks. The extra bucks are like
CVS money that you can use at your next purchase. I also hit
Wal-mart this week and ended up with 4 packs of clean team wipes for .14 cents each after coupons! So, I am pretty excited about my savings and I hope to continue. It takes a bit of work but I am told it gets easier as you go along. I can't wait for tomorrow's paper to find the good deals! I know, you are probably thinking there are better things to do! But, I love finding good deals!
